A great performance by the legendary Dickey Betts and so great to see him up there with his talented son Duane Betts. Here doing the classic Statesboro blues ,by Blind Willie McTell, who recorded it in 1928. The title refers to the town of Statesboro, Georgia. Taj Mahal recorded a popular blues rock adaptation of the song in 1968. His version inspired a recording by the Allman Brothers Band, and the rest is history ...the music never dies. Here at the Peach Music Festival on Montage Mountain in Scranton PA. I acknowledge not owning the copyright of this music, I post these videos for educational purposes and encourage people to go out and see live music and buy the bands CDs and receive no money for this service.
